Zha Ga Na is very popular!

Entering the Zha Ga Na scenic area, there are several 'checkpoints' in the mountain valley. At the first checkpoint, someone asked the driver where he was going, and then let him go. The second checkpoint is the tourist service center for buying scenic area tickets. The third checkpoint is for ticket checking, and the fourth entrance has no checks. After parking, you switch to the scenic area's sightseeing car to enter the park. The fee is 40 yuan per person, with no discounts. This is the round-trip ticket price to the 'One Line Sky' inside the scenic area. The scenery along this road is very primitive and natural, with Tibetan-style wooden houses, golden temples, Tibetan people's harvested wheat stalks hung up to dry, and bean stalks piled up in the field. It used to be a territory of Tubo, and it is said that the indigenous people here are descendants of the 32nd generation of the original Tubo leader Songtsen Gampo. When our car arrived at the parking lot, I saw large characters on the ground of the small bridge, which read: 0 km Rock's Road Zha Ga Na Na Hei Ka Ni Ba Tibetan Village. Looking around, it's all gray stone mountains! They are quite high, no wonder they are called 'Stone Boxes'! The geological park has its special features. These gray mountain tops and sharp peaks, like they have been cut, have no trees on top, and there are gentle slopes and forests in the lower places. The gray peaks look very ancient. This is the 'ancient original geomorphological peak, which condenses the essence of the ancient glacial geomorphology of the global mid-latitude limestone mountainous area'. I don't understand some geological terms, I think it's the remains of ancient glaciers. The mountain here is called Niganda Wa Sacred Mountain. Zha Ga Na is a national 4A level tourist attraction. It has been rated as 'one of the 50 outdoor paradises in the world' by authoritative American travel magazines. It is the 'Eden of God' in the mouth of the Austrian explorer Rock of American nationality; in 2009, 'Zha Ga Na Mountain' was selected as 'one of the top ten non-famous mountains in China' by China National Geographic. The fifth season of 'Where Are We Going, Dad?' was filmed in Zha Ga Na, which exposed Zha Ga Na to mainstream media and entered the public's view, and has since been well known. The parking lot is a service area, including catering shops and stalls selling souvenirs and other facilities; the prayer flags in the grass here are very beautiful, with words expressing love: 'Secret Land Tibetan Township'. The cliff wraps around the space where tourists gather here. I have looked up some information about the Zha Ga Na itinerary before, which can be divided into regular tours and deep tours. The so-called regular tour includes: Tiger's Mouth - One Line Sky, you can take a sightseeing car to go, Fairy Beach - Fairy Lake Line, La Sang Temple Line, you can drive or walk, Da Ri Village Viewing Platform Line, you can see the sunrise, panoramic view, very beautiful, it is also a must-pass place on Rock's Road. Deep tour requires courage and physical strength, it can be one or two days, or four or five days, or even more than half a month, wandering in the village, or crossing from Diebu to Zhuoni County along the Tao Die Ancient Road. People who like to travel are very longing for Zha Ga Na, especially this year. The driver said that during the summer vacation, cars were queuing for half a day and couldn't enter the scenic area, and the accommodation also reached 1000 yuan per night, and this also couldn't book a room. The super popular famous scenic spot in Gannan has to be Zha Ga Na. I think, the popularity here this year is due to its special plateau geological environment, as well as the characteristics of the Tibetan area. This area maintains a natural and primitive style, which is the style of modern people who like to travel to 'open up virgin land'. We chose to take the sightseeing car to 'One Line Sky' first to save energy. The road is very narrow, the car is going up and turning along the slope, some sections of the road are steep gray mountains on both sides, different heights, stacked up and down, the bald peaks look like they have no life, some look like an independent 'triangle board'; while on the low slopes in front of the mountains, there are vegetation and trees growing, representing the green of life. There are plank roads connecting different scenic spots in the scenic area, and tourists can walk and enjoy the scenery. If you walk, it's quite tiring, because it's always uphill. The car passed through the big crack in the stone mountain from 'One Line Sky', the big crack is natural, this is very special, I observed from the side, it looks like two gorillas sitting there ready to kiss. After passing the big crack of 'One Line Sky', the other side suddenly opened up, with a small stream flowing from the edge of the mountain, the water flow is not big, tourists are taking pictures here. 'One Line Sky' is the turning point of the sightseeing car. If you continue to go inside the mountain, you have to walk. There are several scenic spots - God King Temple, Small Waterfall, Stone Forest, Grand Canyon, Tongtian Cave, etc., all are natural scenery. There are several scenic spots called 'One Line Sky' in many scenic spots across the country. Now that I see it, I don't think it's so novel. It's OK to check in here, we're going to Fairy Beach next!
